Hi
There is the guide: wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Sony_Ericsson_Xperia_Play_%28GSM%29:_Full_Update_Guide
If you got problems with reboot use boot.img from previous one.
I had that yeterday and flashed from previous and everything run smoothly.
Hope it help.

Maybe try different kernel, there is new Mjolnir Kernel. You can fastboot it no need to install system from scratch after.

Hello,
I downloaded the CM9 RC1 from the cyanogenMod page, here's the link, http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=zeus&type=RC
The kernel is inside the zip (boot.img).
Put the .zip file you downloaded into the SDcard
copy the boot.img that comes inside the .zip to the folder where you have the flashing tools.
flash this kernel (You know how to do that, right?)
unplug from computer the cel and turn on, a freexperia logo appear and when the light in the power button turns on, press and keep pressed the down volume button. you'll enter to the recovery menu.
in the recovery (use the volume buttons to move and home button to enter), wipe data/fatory reset, then wipe cache partition and go advanced/wipe Dalvik Cache.
Still on the recovery, back to main menu (use the back button) and go to install zip from sdcard, then go to choose a zip from sdcard. You will see the files on your card, search for the downloaded .zip and install it.
when finish, go to main menu and choose reboot system now, and that's it!
That worked for me.... hope this will help you to install the CM9 :fingers-crossed:
Cheers :good:

Hello,
Also, Don´t forget to download the google apps .zip file.
Put it in the same place you put the CM9 rom into the sdcard. on step 6, when the installation of the rom finish, before rebboting the phone, repeat the step 6 but choose the googles apps .zip file and there you go!
the link for the CM9 google apps is: http://cmw.22aaf3.com/gapps/gapps-ics-20120317-signed.zip
Cheers! :good:

You have to use a kernel which is made for cm9. Doomkernel and darkforest kernel are made for sony ics beta rom.
Sorry for my bad English. It's not my native language.

Please advice me to clean up some memory. So that i can install some apps and make my android really work. Shall i update to 4.04 or gingerbread is fine. I am totally confused what should i do. Please help me.. :crying:

Just do a factory reset then make a second partition on your sdcard and use link2sd. Problem solved.

Is factory reset and hard reset are the same?

You could search this for yourself http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1874801 or with pictures http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/38251 Its basically flashing an older kernel then running a rooting program on your pc then flashing back newest kernel.
edit
I think you need root for this mod.

AW: [Q] Low on space notification -- Please help me
sorry, i was at training, so i could not reply that fast.
well, rooting is allways a first step.
i did it that way: (short form only, if u want additional info's, just ask)
1. root
2. put a new rom + gapps on ur sd card
3. flash a prerootet kernel with preinstalled recovery which fits to ur rom
4. flash rom + gapps
5. reboot
6. connect phone to pc
7. backup ur sd card
8. delete ur entire sd card (thats why u have to make the backup)
9. reboot into recovery
10. wipe all
11. search for 'partition sd card'
12. choose ur values that u want
13. reboot into system
14. connect to pc
15. put all files back on sd card
16. download the mod and put in on sd too
17. reboot into recovery
18. flash the mod
19. wipe all
20. reboot
21. YOU'RE DONE!!
press thanks if it helped

Modules.zip is inside of fusion kernel rar file : D No there is no risk in flashing wifi modules because these are just a files required for a custom kernel to work properly. I mean like a drivers in windows so the wifi can work.
Just remember to format system, data, cache partitions in CWM before flashing anything. And I forgot about this http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip these are the newest google apps for JB without this Play store, google maps etc wont work.

[Q] Error! Could not download Internet Settings, Please HEP

I came through a lot of problems for the past 2 weeks, with my new Xperia Arc. Currently i ve flashed to .587 stock ROM and then flashed Vengence kernel, Installed the Ultimate HD v3.03 using CWM. I also installed the modules of both vengence and stock .587. But now i cannot access internet, when i download the settings from Settings->Xperia->Download settings. I get this "Could not download settings error" Please insist me. But i can see the APN profile in my networks option, even when i tick that, its not working..
THis is what i followed, a post by Tesla....
Oh man.. They are right after Vengeance 1.32 download.
Called Modules http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?mg8x3fl3qxpp9u1
You will need stock too. http://forum.xda-developers.com/atta...3&d=1345565020
I flashed both the modules, but could'int get it ork, Please help me, Any one faced similar problems?

What do you mean by "modules of both vengence and stock .587"? You only need to flash Vengeance modules. Flash .587 then custom kernel then install UHD (remember to wipe everything) and then kernels modules. Good luck.

I skimmed through the Ultimate HD threat, and found that , flashing the vengence kernel's modules is not enough... I must also flash the stocke .587 kernal 's modules... That is which i obtained from that link above, I even tried to everything from the starch, BUt the internet problem still persist, So since i am flashing to .587 ROM 0r Firmware, (which is probably the ROM of Xperiar Arc S) Should i have to download the vengence kernel for Arc S ???? What should i specify in the aroma installer? Arc S or Xperia Arc?

But why flash stock modules when they're already embedded in UHD? Start again from flashing .587 ftf then install Vengeance kernel from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2097138 then wipe all, install ROM and then flash kernel modules. I'm not sure but try to select Arc s in aroma installer.
edit:
Remember to flash new modules downloaded from the thread linked above.

i did it 4 times !!!!!!!!!!! And still the same problem, wifi is working great but the mobile internet is not working, the APN settings exists, but cannot use internet, I think there is some problem with APN configuration file in my ROM.. Any body faced the same problem...?? Please help..!

Look for internet settings on your carriers website and setup your phone manually.

I already did that.... The settings are the same.. But there is no internet access.. But its working fine on stock .587 ROM ... Then the problem must be with the UHD rom right??? There is no E symbol at all..

i have the same internet settings problem as well. turned on Data Connectivity but no H or E or 3G or anything. i had to reinstall the ROM to make it work again.. but even then,, it always swtiches down to EDGE eventhough there's 3G signal. might be interference between ROM and kernel.

hi... , after I upgraded my XAS from ICS to JB using Sony updater. I rooted and unlocked the bootloader and after it installed Cabratos Adv Stock kernel. however now I'm not sure the right way to install ROMS, why each one speaks to one different way (flashing boot.img or install using CWM ...) however I do not have the slightest idea what I'm doing ... someone help me

well for one you already flashed cobrato's kernel so you're ready to flash a stock based ROM like Trinity Vengeance...
if you want to flash an AOSP or CM based ROM like PACMAN or CM10.1 just download the ROM package, extract the boot.img that's inside the package, fastboot flash the boot.img, reboot to recovery [they already have their own recovery with the kernel], wipe data and cache and then flash the ROM package

bugs will always be there bro, what with all the modding and scripting that developers do on a ROM..you just have to find the right workarounds in my opinion

i really understand that... but this "bugs" about i'm saying is from based source(Installation conflicts)... i just will do a clean re-installing to be sure... maybe when sony release new Update some bugs disappear...
I'll do it tomorrow ... enough for today(1:10 AM here) ... Thanks for help me (I still have to re-format my PC today ... another thing is full of bugs)

and after that.. I'll have to do the root again? ... neither the unlock the bootloader? ...

what i did when i flashed trinity was:
flash cobrato kernel

flash trinity rom
reboot to system
if you wanna flash forzaferrarileo kernel after flashing the rom just fastboot flash it or use flashtool..i dunno if you can use forzaferrarileo kernel to flash the rom, but i beleive you can do so since it has cwm recovery already

Make sure you have the latest version of Flashtool.

Wifi & CWM isn't working in Xperia Arc

I rooted my Xperia Arc last year and installed Ultimate HD v3. Though it was working fine yesterday after I had flashed Ultimate HD v5, both my Wifi and CWM stopped working (earlier I probably installed CWM manually through copying some files to SYSTEM directory). Now, I have no idea whether its a ROM specific problem or I've done something wrong. I am a noob so someone please help me out. In this situation could someone help with the following:
1. How I can re-install CWM now (my wifi is nor working)?
2. Is there any way to start wifi without CWM module flash?
It would be a great help if someone could guide me what to do and provide some thread link for this. Thanks in advance.
